BALTIMORE, June 1.-THE champions batted
Kilroy with com parative ease to-day, and played
brilliantly in tie field. The homo team also
felded remarkably well. but could not solve
Carushers's delivery, and lost of the most in

ment, coaching was done away with, and In con-
sequence the game was played in less time, and
the orderly conduct of the players was pleas

very cautiously done. and the record OF stolen

Arundel was largely responsible for the ad-
vantages given the Pttsburgs.
Sbomberg atoned for his two errors by making
two runs. His playing otherwise was good
Anson's father is very i'll at his home in Mar

lease was bought of the Nashville club, was in
Inc box for the Philadelphas to-day in the game

but with good fielding the home team would
have won. Mulvey played miserably third,

Arranging Cheap Pictures.


A very good way of disposing of good but
cheap prints was adopted in college boys
ROOM lately.
The walls of the room were of boards painted
n very dark color. No framed pictures were
hung in any place, but about six feet from the
floor common brown paper-the rough kind
grocers use-was pasted. making band of dull
mustard color. about eighteen inches wide, which
extended all around the room
On this newspaper prints, mostly taken from
comic papers, were pasted, not regularly, but in
groups, and in odd and attractive ways. Here
and there dashes of gold paint were made with a
large brush so that the whole effect was bold
and telling.
This idea copied by a young girl. who fit
ted up an out of the-way extension room in SINH
lar style.
The pictures she used were ali wood cuts of
good and familiar pictures.

Mullane is again with the Cinciunatis. The
arrangement came about in a curious way. Man
aeer Schmeltz says he had reason to believe that
the Louisvilles would be willing to swap Ram
sey for him, and he went to Rutland, VT, to
range with Mullane for the transfer The out
come of the talk was unexpected, for il resulted
in ad ms tment of former differences, and once
more Mullane wears the Cincinnati uniform.

thirty eight feet. The original survey made by
Lieutenant Wise is OF little value. There is
very little sand in the soil, but plenty of clay
and more solid rock. considerable portion of

the rock in the big cut the blasting will have

Great difficulty has been experienced in get

sent TO Trinidad, Hong Kong and other remote
places with varied success. We got about eight

per cent. of the common laborers die each year.
Eighty per cent. of the whites perish. Last year

trouble Scotch dredges only are In use We
got one hundred and seventy coolies to GO to
stand the climate and labor better than any other

I'VE have funds enough on band to continue
the work about four months. After the money
Is exhausted think De Lesseps will be forced to
abandon the enterprise for good. for
years at least The scarcity of money, imprac
ticahility of the present route, and unexpected
obstacles are reasons sufficient.
1T rains about nine months of the year on the
isthmus, day and night. The three dry months
are not entirely free of rain either. The result
Is that there frequent freshets along the line
and portions of the work have had to be rebnils
repeatedly. AT one point, in January, 1883, the
water rose twenty-one feet six hours, and not
only destroyed our railroad bridge, but other val
liable superstructures."
